TAYLOR AWARD FOR TEEN READERSWhen a terrorist explosion kills
a young woman at a cafe in Jerusalem, seventeen year old Tal Levine who is a
witness becomes despondent. She writes a letter, puts it in a bottle and
asks her brother to toss it into the Gaza sea. A young Palestinian man finds
the bottle and responds to her letter. At first he is angry and critical.
Eventually they embark on a friendship that ultimately opens their eyes to
each other's lives and hearts. |
